Living with roommates is a wonderful opportunity to develop lasting friendships and help each other succeed academically and personally. Though this may be a new experience for many, open communication and mutual respect will set you up for a successful year!

Tips for Roommate Success

The residence halls on campus are my favorite part. I currently live in the University Flats. And it's amazing with the kitchen that we have in there, and then the room styles that we have. Students like living on campus because it's easy to get to class. You don't have to worry about car traffic. It's easy to hop on the bus and get to class if you don't like walking to classes.

UK Postal Services

UK Postal Services processes all incoming mail and packages for campus. Our residence halls receive mail Monday through Friday. Any deliveries made over the weekend will be processed on the next business day and available for pickup then.

ADDRESSING PACKAGES

To ensure your packages are delivered correctly, please use the specific mailing address for your residence hall. You can find this address in the Hall Information section on the UK Wildcat Living website. Follow these steps:

  1. Visit the residence halls page on the Wildcat Living website to locate your hall's mailing address.
  2. When addressing your package, include the student's full name, residence hall, and room number to avoid delays.

     

Mailing Address Example:

(all mailing services including U.S. Postal Service, UPS, FedEx, etc.)

[student name]
326 S. Martin Luther King Blvd.
[room number] Blazer Hall
University of Kentucky
Lexington, KY 40526-0123

Please be aware that carriers may send a delivery notification before the package has reached your residence hall. This usually means it has arrived at the UK central post office and is waiting to be distributed. You will receive an email from Wildcat Living Campus Housing when your package is ready for pickup at your hall’s front desk.

DROP-OFFS and SAME-DAY DELIVERY:

UK accepts packages and deliveries from recognized carriers like USPS, UPS, FedEx, DHL and Amazon at the residence hall front desks. However, UK does not accept drop-offs or same-day delivery services (e.g., Walmart, DoorDash, Grubhub or UberEATS) at the front desks. Students must meet these types of vendors in person in the main lobby to collect such items.
